S1 E7 - BARCELONA: Beaches, Tapas & Catalan Culture

The vibrant city Barcelona offers white sandy beaches by day, and glitzy dance clubs by night. But beyond that, this town has it all: surreal modernist architecture, bustling markets with fresh local produce and seafood, and nightlife that continues through sunrise. Barcelona is the capital of Catalonia, Spain’s north-easternmost territory, and the regional pride here is fierce. Get ready to soak in the culture and pick up some tips on living like a local from this fun conversation I have with fellow guide Lauren Fokas. But first, we open the show with our newest segment—where listeners send in, comment and post their questions to us. This week, I answer: “What are the main travel apps you use?” and share essential apps to download before your trip- including local Ideas, cheap flight trackers, and a few that you may not expect will come in handy during travels.  Submit your burning travel questions at andysteves.com/podcast, or on my new Facebook page. Gracies!
